2007 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

THE POWER WINDOWS ARE NOT ROLLING DOWN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THE BACK WINDOWS. ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOWS ARE GETTING ROLLED DOWN. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA AND DURING THE DAY TIME, IT IS VERY HOT AND NEEDS TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS TO ESCAPE FROM THE EXTREME HEAT. BUT BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT. IT IS BECOMING DIFFICULT WITH THE KIDS. I SEE SIMILAR ISSUE HAPPENING WITH MOST OF THE HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE SAFETY ASSIST SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V500000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. MA 10/23/15 UPDATED 11/05/15.*JB

WHILE DRIVING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SEEM TO BLINK OUT AND COME BACK ON. ALL ELECTRICAL PARTS SEEM TO BE AFFECTECTED.

I HAVE OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR 4 YEARS NOW AND SINCE IT WAS FIRST PURCHASED IT HAS BEEN HAND WASHED AND DETAILED. I HAVE NOW ENCOUNTER MY PAINT PEELING IN PLACES WHERE THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND RUST IN PLACES WHERE THERE HAS BEEN DAMAGE AS WELL. IN RESEARCHING THIS MODEL YEAR VEHICLE I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE COMPLAINT FOR THIS CAR. I AM WONDERING WHY THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALLS FOR THIS. I SPOKE WITH HONDA BUT THEY INFORMED ME THAT BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WASN'T THE COLOR THEY RECALLED PREVIOUSLY THEY COULD NOTHING ABOUT IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT AND I AND MY PARENTS HAVE BEEN LOYAL HONDA CUSTOMERS FOR 15 YEARS YET THERE ARE NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I WOULD LIKE THIS RESOLVED AND BE ABLE TO HAVE MY PAINT REPAIRED BEFORE I HAVE MORE PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD.

THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY USING POWERED CLOSING MECHANISM. WHEN THE POWER MECHANISM IS TURNED OFF ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE DOOR IS CLOSED MANUALLY BY HAND, IT STAYS CLOSED BUT ONLY FOR A FEW SECONDS. THEN THE BACK PART OF THE DOOR POPS OPEN. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE BACK OF THE DOOR IS PUSHED CLOSED (AND THE LOCK BUTTON HURRIEDLY LOCKED) THE BACK OF THE DOOR WILL POP OPEN. WHEN IT IS BEING DRIVEN DOWN THE ROAD/HIGHWAY THE DOOR OPEN LIGHT IS ON, THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED COMPLETELY AND ROAD/HIGHWAY NOISE IS HEARD FROM THE PARTIALLY OPEN DOOR. ON OCCASION, (WHEN TURNING RIGHT, GOING DOWNHILL, GOING OVER CERTAIN BUMPS) THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF AND THE DOOR WILL "CLOSE" BUT THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY. AS SOON AS THE TURN IS FINISHED, NOT GOING DOWNHILL, OR GO OVER ANOTHER SMALL BUMP, THE DOOR WILL POP OPEN IN THE BACK AND THE LIGHT WILL TURN BACK ON. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE CHILDREN ARE TRANSPORTED IN THE VEHICLE!

THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE HONDA ODYSSEY. THE PUMP HAD BEEN REPLACED 1 MONTH INTO OWNING THE VAN. THEN IT WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL BECAUSE OF THE SAME ISSUE AND NOT IT IS DOING IT AGAIN. >100K MILES BUT IT HAD BEEN REPORTED MULTIPLE TIME AND THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED. IT IS A TIME ISSUE. THE MORE YOU DRIVE IT THE WORSE IT GETS. THERE IS A NOISE AND THE STEERING IS HARD. AT LOW SPEED YOU CAN NOT TURN(PARKING LOTS) OR IT IS VERY HARD TO TURN. WHEN THEY DRIVE IT IN THE PARKING LOT THEY WOULD NOT GET THE NOISE. HONDA TOLD ME TO PROVE THAT THE VAN WAS IN THE SHOP FOR AN ISSUE(THEY PURGE THEIR RECORDS EVERY 3 YEARS). THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE MAKE THEM FIX IT...

WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY AT 65-70 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I LOST ALL POWER TO MY VAN. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO COAST TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER, I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY ARE NOW SAYING IT IS THE FUEL PUMP. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP (# 14E049000)&(GL14-004). BUT MY VIN# DOES NOT SHOW A RECALL. WHAT CAN I DO?

AS THE DRIVER AND ONLY PASSENGER OF THE ABOVE REFERENCED VEHICLE EN-ROUTE TO PICK-UP MY WIFE FROM WORK ON THURSDAY, 19 FEBRUARY 2015 AT APPROXIMATELY 1630 HOURS, I WAS INVOLVED IN A THREE VEHICLE COLLISION WHILE TRAVELLING APPROXIMATELY 33 MPH WESTBOUND ON DALE BOULEVARD APPROACHING FORRESTDALE AVENUE IN WOODBRIDGE, VIRGINIA. AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, I WAS WEARING MY SEAT BELT. THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG IN MY 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY DEPLOYED. INITIAL ASSUMPTION WAS THAT AS THE RESULT OF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, MY HEAD WAS FORCEFULLY PUSHED TOWARDS THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. AND THAT THE IMPACT SHATTERED THE GLASS CAUSING MULTIPLE LACERATIONS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY FACE, MULTIPLE FRACTURES AROUND THE EYE SOCKET AND HYPHEMA IN MY LEFT EYE (PHOTOS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR PERUSAL). TO THIS DATE, I CAN'T MAKE SENSE OF THIS ASSUMPTION. I WAS IMMEDIATELY TRANSPORTED BY EMT AMBULANCE TO SENTARA HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM. X-RAYS ON MY CHEST SHOWED NO BROKEN BONES. CAT SCANS TO MY HEAD CONFIRMED MULTIPLE FRACTURES ON THE EYE SOCKET AND CHEEK BONES. SURGERY WAS PERFORMED BETWEEN 12 MIDNIGHT ? 3:00 AM TO SUTURE THE LACERATIONS AND ENSURE THAT MY LEFT EYE WAS CLEAR OF BROKEN GLASS. I WAS OUT OF WORK FROM FRIDAY, 20 FEBRUARY 2015 THRU MONDAY, 02 MARCH 2015 BY ORDER OF DR. BABUR LATEEF, OPTHALMOLOGIST, ADVANCED OPTHALMOLOGY INC. ? THE SPECIALIST WHO PERFORMED THE SURGERY. DR. LATEEF CONTINUES TO SEE ME TO MONITOR THE PRESSURE IN MY EYE, MONITOR THE POSSIBILITY OF GETTING CATARACT AND VISION CORRECTION. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED AND IS NOW IN GOOD OPERATING CONDITION (PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE PRIOR TO REPAIR AVAILABLE FOR YOUR PERUSAL). HOWEVER, WITH THE ADVENT OF FUTURE RECALLS DUE TO AIRBAG INCIDENTS IN THE NEWS I DECIDED TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE IN HOPES THAT I CAN ASSIST IF NOT HELP PREVENT THESE TYPES OF INJURY/IES. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AROUND 20MPH WHEN I SMELLED SMOKE I PULLED OVER. THERE WAS SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE CAR AROUND THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. WITHIN MINUTES MY ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. MY CAR IS COMPLETELY TOTALED. MY FAMILY IS SAFE BUT WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHY THIS HAS HAPPENED AND DON'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE. IF THERE IS ANOTHER WEBSITE OR AGENCY THAT I SHOULD REPORT THIS TO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. IT WAS VERY SCARY.

MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER SHIELDS (FRONT COVER A AND B) WERE REPLACED ON 6/19/2012. ON 6/22/2015 THE FRONT (A AND B) CATALYTIC CONVERTER SHIELDS WERE REPLACED AGAIN AND THE THE REAR SHIELDS (A AND B) WERE REPLACED AS WELL. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT SEEMS EXCESSIVE SO I THOUGHT I WOULD REPORT IT.
